I have 35 years of professional culinary experience in cities such as New York, Atlantic City, Los Angeles, Palm Springs and St. Tropez, France. Having received 3 & 4 star reviews throughout my career as well as the Distinguished Restaurants of North America (DiRoNa) award 3 times is a testament to my passion, creativity and skill as a chef as well as my love for what I do.

For me, cooking is...

the definition of who I am and what I strive to be. Every meal I cook is a unique experience both for me and the guests whom I serve.

I learned to cook at...

home with ingredients pulled from the garden, but my skill was honed under the direction of Master Chef Jacques Pepin at the French Culinary Institute
